Right, so shouldn't the rules be more relaxed? Why so many damn rules? Instead of saying this guy in in 2 bands (who are both actively touring) and can't play at 2 different festivals. I think he just moved up off of this is Bonnaroo, 20 Bonnaroos, all taking place on one weekend, it would work a lot better.
It's a learning process - some things we have to figure out as we go along. Last year we allowed members of a drafted band play other festivals, but we had to prove that they sometimes played without their respective band while their band was on tour. It was a clusterfuck, and one that wasn't anticipated. So this year to simplify things, we made the individual members exclusive to their fest - and it's gotten a little clusterfucky with regard to trade rights and the kind of stuff that we're discussing now. I think as a group we're doing just fine figuring things out for ourselves, and making changes as issues arise if necessary.
That's fine if the majority are enjoying the process. But it's not just me complaining, 2 others pmd me about it not being fun.
And, to address sang_xcx's assertion that I cannot participant in the draft... Yes I can and I will.
I made the rules up prior to the start of the draft, opened them to discussion, the rules were agreed to prior to the draft commencing, there is a mechanism in place to amend the rules and a system in place to settle disputes. Once the draft starts I'm responsible for maintaining the OP. People ask me question and I do my best to provide my interpretation as to how it falls within the rules.
If Vieux wants to select APC, she can. It would then be subject to a poll and I would expect it to lose.
If a non-participant doesn't like the rules, tough shit.
And instead of saying all of your goodbyes - let them know you realize that life goes fast - It's hard to make the good things last-you realize the sun doesn't go down - It's just an illusion caused by the world spinning round

She didn't understand what she was voting on. Like we discussed in the pm, she thought what you said meant that APC was hers. I may be causing more of a fuss about it, but she wasn't pleased with the situation.

Also how the fuck did y'all even come up with that trade?? #respect
There are some great acts in that trade and then there's RHCP
Which Vieux has to take on in order to fully complete the trade haha. btw when her pick comes up there may be a wait, I'm going to wait on her approval for the trade that she was offered.
She asked for it. What she gets out of it is her lineup is actually going to look the way she wanted it to. Maybe with the exception of RHCP. Who knows, she may love them and will be thrilled about it.

Not for nothing but she doesn't actually have to include them on her final lineup.

True or she can immediately try to trade them right away.

Random note that I appreciate your presence on the board.
Ever since you changed your name and pic I legitimately keep forgetting who you are, and my initial reaction is always "Who the fuck is this newb and why is he participating in the draft thread?". Anyway hi danbob.
